Neutral point of view is one of the founding principles of Wikipedia and was promulgated by its founder, Jimmy Wales, and strongly supported by its co-founder, Larry Sanger, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view&diff=270453&oldid=270452#The_original_statement_of_the_neutral_point_of_view_policy The first edits to the page is dated November 10, 2001 but I think the very first edits of that page are no longer available. It's not an unwritten constitution...
